    Not much to say, everyone that give good number have told all the awesomeness.
    The web swinging, it's like a standalone game, spent so many hours for this.

    Best ever SpiderMan game and one of the best games this year. If you don't like Spidey just play this game. Almost a masterpiece and a must-have PS4 game. Impressive on many levels.

    This game amazed me with the amount of details and attention. Story has short and bold arcs, evolution of the charters and believable connections between them. Voice acting and animations are cutting edge, while open-world activities are bit plain at parts, but still provide a lot of fun and participate in overall storytelling.

    1. the game is too repetitive

    2. it lacks fun openworld activities

    3. lacking in animations

    4. Dynamic crime system is limited to 5 crimes per district per enemy type (meaning if you progress in the story and discover new enemies they will start to commit crimes the problem is the crimes arent randomly generated and infinite meaning you have a limited amount of them)

    5. miles morales and marry jane gameplay sections all boil down to sneaking past guards and are pointless.

    THE GOOD

    1. web swinging and overall traversal is AMAZING

    2. the combat is phenomenal

    3. the story is fantastic

    4. the boss fights are fun for the most part

    5. the suits and gadgets upgrade system is awesome

    6. the characters are great

    7. the game was suprisingly stable not a single crash on my system

    8. the collectibles are awesome

    9. the visuals are so mind blowing that they make arkham knight look pixelated by comparison

    10. the controlls are very well done

    All in all its a good game but it has issues, issues that shouldnt be there in the first place i dont understand why soo many people are giving it a 10/10 or a 9/10 it just doesnt deserve that rating be honest for **** sake. if you want to buy the game now id say go ahead its worth the price for the most part if you can look past some issues that is. i hope the sequel fixes most of these problems.    … Expand

    juego recomendadísimo para todos los jugadores de la ps4 . Historia fantástica , jugabilidad exquisita , ambientación genial de la ciudad de nueva york y una suavidad de movimiento inmejorable . La única pega es la repetitividad de las misiones secundarias , aun así son entretenidas . Sin ninguna duda , el mejor juego de spider-man y en mi opinión , de súper héroes en general .

    Great game, im enjoying the story. The customization aspect of the game is down right fun. However, some of the challenges are, to me, pointless and seems nothing more to serve as filler for the great but ultimately, not that long of a story and to justify the exorbitant price. If the challenges weren't necessary to help boost your equipment, i wouldn't bother with them

After blow minding Batman Arkham experience from Rocksteady I was little bit concerned about new beginning of Spinder Man universe in gaming industry. That was caused about small experience by Insomniac games also. Sunset Overdrive was awesome but, let me get straight, games abot Marvel and DC heroes it's absolutely the top league.

    And after all the day of the redemption finally came!

    My doubt were compleately unjustifed. The game is simply wonderful. The plot renders the specific of Spidey very well. This is the same sneaky and funny guy we all knew from the comic line. Sinister Six really get handle! And my favourite Shocker is so fantastically designed! (very similiar to the Spidey PS2 game from 2004).

    Gameplay? Oh my god... It's simply stunning! When you tasting it you're thinking: Is that game really need anything else? It's so simply and juicy experience which makes everyone relief. Spidey is very agile thanks to we can make incredible things through the New York surroundings.

    Some whining about the side missions but c'mon people, this is not RPG! It's action game! In it all meaning itself. Talks about them no one allude about perfectly implemented easter eggs which makes every fan of Marvel universe dizzy. There are plenty of them!

    Insomniac made a fair work in the optimization also. The diffrence between PS4 PRO and normal PS4 it's only the graphics. In the both version the game works smoth as well.

    I'm Spidey fan from a long, long time and this game is crowning my life adventure through the Marvel best character in history.

    Thank you Insomniac ;)    … Expand

    Sabe, eu sou um grande fã do Homem-Aranha desde sempre, meu herói preferido (personagem preferido no geral) dos meus 4 anos até hoje. Eu nunca vi um só filme, jogo ou animação que pudesse compreender tão bem o personagem e representar ele nessa história espetacular que honra o que Stan Lee e Steve Ditko fizeram ao criar o Homem-Aranha.
    Se você já adorou o começo do game, vai amar ainda mais o desenrolar da história, e o surpreendente final. Mas o gake não se trata só de história, mas também da gameplay. O combate, baseado na série Arkham, mas alterado aos moldes da Insomniac pra se encaixar ao Homem-Aranha em si. Com sua movimentação rápida, fluída, aérea e, principalmente, baseada no improviso, e essa última característica que faz o combate desse jogo único e um rival do estilo implementando pelos jogos do Batman. Nos Arkham por exemplo, quando você se deparava com um inimigo blindado, você tinha opções limitadas de derrotá-lo, que sempre apelavam pra no máximo três opções. No Homem-Aranha, apesar da variedade de inimigos e de suas imunidades, devido a quantidade de gadgets e opções, há inúmeros jeitos de imobilizar até os inimigos de maneiras muito interessantes e criativas. Seja jogando ele de uma beirada, socando-os pra cima, os enchendo de teia no ar, e puxando pra baixo (o que colaria eles no chão), jogando inimigos em cima de outros, jogando seus foguetes ou granadas de volta, finalizações aéreas, chutes balançando... Essa foi uma primeira tentativa de combate da Insomniac que conseguiu reinventar a fórmula Arkham e tornar ainda mais dinâmico que seu inspirador, além de ser mais desafiante, pois você vai encontrar muito mais inimigos armados em combate e sua resistência a balas é extremamente menor que a do Batman nos games.
    O stealth, mais rápido e agora com mais opções de distração que o stealth dos jogos predecessores (TASM 1 e 2 da Activision e Beenox), ainda não está no nível Arkham, porém ele consegue ser extremamente rápido e silencioso graças as habilidades do Teioso. A interação com cenário e as suas ferramentas deixam tudo mais fluido e interessante de se ver, além das animações de neutralização furtiva muito bem feitas e criativas.
    O melhor "web-slinging" já criado num jogo do Aranha. Desafiante de se aprender, mas quando você masteriza ele, simplesmente tudo ocorre de forma tão bela e fluída que até da gosto de passar muito tempo só se balançando pela cidade, misturando com seu parkour em prédios que deixa tudo mais prazeroso. É rápido e funcional, como nenhum outro game do Cabeça de Teia.
    28 trajes alternativos, 95% deles com uma habilidade única que você pode mesclar em outros trajes, como habilitar o ataque em área de efeito de guitarra do Aranha-Punk no traje Homemade. Além de permitir até 3 mods de armadura dente mais de 20 pra você ter vantagens no que você quiser, seja ofensivo, defensivo, movimentação e utilitários.
    Uma porrada de referências do começo ao fim do jogo, muitas delas de muito aparentes até bem secretas e que só encontramos dando um zoom com o Modo Foto. Quase sempre com um comentário engraçado do Peter pra você rir um pouco.
    Mundo vivo, Nova York recriada quase em perfeição, interação com o mundo, pessoas e cenário. Iluminação e gráficos com um nível de cair o queixo. Missões secundárias e coletaveis bem legais pra você descobrir vilões únicos, novos tipos de inimigos, mais da história da cidade e do Peter. Podcast do nosso amado JJJ sempre falando dos acontecimentos do jogo e culpando o amigão da vizinhança.

    Falando sério, modéstia à parte, como um dos maiores fãs do Homem-Aranha e como um viciado em videogames e coleta de platinas, esse é o game definitivo do herói. A maior obra dele em muito tempo que me deixa extremamente hypado pela sequência. Se você é fã também e tá em dúvida em comprar, não fique em dúvida, eu te prometo uma experiência incrível.

    Obrigado Insomniac e Sony por trazer meu sonho de ter finalmente um jogo que honre esse personagem que todos amamos. Vocês trouxeram o definivo Teioso, o superior Cabeça de Teia, o realmente Espetacular Homem-Aranha.    … Expand

    There are myriad good reasons why Marvel's Spider-Man is the best-selling and highest-rated Spider-Man title in years. While it has a few glaring flaws, they pale in comparison to all of the things the team at Insomniac got right. A well-acted, strong story serves as the backbone for an experience that just plain feels right for Spider-Man, and fans and newcomers alike won't be disappointed by this trip to the Spider-verse.

    This game does for Spider-Man what the Arkham series did for Batman. Immensely satisfying movement system, excellent combat, fast pace, superb visuals and wealth of side activities converge to bring a wonderful experienced, diluted only by some minor missteps in the story and a couple of stealth sequences where you control supporting characters instead of Spidey.
